Profile:
He came into national reckoning by a series of splendid performances
around the domestic circuit. But Kanitkar's international record did
not come anywhere near his feats at the national level. A stocky and
gritty right handed batsman and a sound wicketkeeper, Kanitkar scored
65 (top score) in his first Test innings against West Indies at
Bangalore, but successive scores of 18, 8 and 20 meant that he could
not consolidate his place in the side and he was discarded for good.
But Kanitkar was a tower of strength for Maharashtra in the
Ranji Trophy in which he scored 3632 runs (43.75) with a highest
score of 250 against Rajasthan in 1970-71. In a first class career
that lasted from 1963 to 1978, Kanitkar scored 5007 runs
(42.79) with 13 centuries and 87 dismissals, 68 of them caught.
He is the father of Hrishikesh Kanitkar. (Partab Ramchand)
